EC2 stops after Start Instance is initiated

0

Hello Team,

I'm trying to understand what's causing one of my ec2 instances to stop after start is selected. It was working for a long time and everything was fine. And then i decided to restart the instance (that actually did in the past and also was good), but after stop and trying to start the instance again, i get an error : "StateReason": { "Code": "Client.InstanceInitiatedShutdown", "Message": "Client.InstanceInitiatedShutdown: Instance initiated shutdown" },

The state reason doesn't give any real details as to what is causing this.

Please help what to do here.

This command is executed: aws ec2 describe-instances --instance-id i-096e424ce8df9bfcc --output json:

Hello.

Are you running a script that performs a shutdown on the OS side?

  • No, nothing. It worked for monts and everything was fine. Just decided to make a restart for instance and can't start again
